    Who's Running This Thing?
    May 27 2026
    Who's Running This Thing? | Battle Born Tech · May 26, 2026 This week on Battle Born Tech, Christy's computers can't sleep — they stay up until their updates are finished. Joe is equal parts fascinated and unsettled by the story of AI agents left alone in a virtual world for 15 days — and what happened when things went very, very wrong. Lee wants to know what an Administrator account actually gets you in Windows, and Christy weighs in on the double-edged sword of having the keys to the kingdom — yes, including setting the clock. Paul has a revelation: that camera in your pocket does more than take selfies. Don brings his Apple photos to Windows and wonders where all his thumbnails went. We have answers — and a quote about taking the Apple out of the files. Battle Born Tech airs Tuesdays at 8 PM Pacific on FM 95.1 · Stream live at KNVC.org · battleborn.tech · bbtl.ink/stats · Call the studio Saturdays 9–11 AM Pacific: 775-241-3571

    Don't Ask—Don't Tell
    May 20 2026
    Don't Ask Don't Tell | Battle Born Tech · May 19, 2026 "There is no undo on log-off." This week on Battle Born Tech, Christy consoles the callers while Joe — hair somewhere between Scorched and Torched — warns listeners about AI that knows exactly how to get what it wants from you. Unusual offers. Fake urgency. Age restrictions. Sound familiar? Joe breaks down the signs before the scams break down your wallet. Speaking of things that want something from you — your laptop might be next. Bill calls in wondering why his computer has suddenly turned into a nag and a scold. Turns out Windows has been asking — and Bill has been told — one too many times. We walk him through silencing the noise and setting things to the only sensible option: Don't Ask, Don't Tell. (We adjust from Windows 11 Edge to Windows 10 Edge along the way — "Okay, let's start over.") Steve brings a warning for anyone still on Windows 10: that free update extension? It expires if Microsoft doesn't hear from you every 60 days. "Got to say HELLO every 60 days" — or as Christy puts it, "Let Microsoft know you are alive and well and using Windows 10." Jeff gets cut off — but not before revealing his laptop has a work-life balance problem. Personal life? Creeping right into the workspace. And Facebook is firing employees and moving engineers to AI. "How else will they stuff AI down your throat." "We probably shouldn't say that over the air." Probably not. But we did.

    Tap, Talk, & Transfer
    May 13 2026
    Tap, Talk, & Transfer | Battle Born Tech · May 12, 2026 This week it's all about the callers. Char is on a mission to tame her desktop — we walk her through clicking that tiny URL icon in the browser bar, hunting through the bowels of Windows for the perfect shortcut icon, and making her computer finally work the way she wants. Bruce faces a tough decision about his Samsung Galaxy Tab A11 — not all tablets are created equal, and whether his can hit the cellular airwaves comes down to one critical question: which version did he buy? We help him sleuth out the answer. And Dee is going full origami, carefully folding her digital life from one phone into a brand new Samsung foldable using Smart Switch — we make sure nothing gets lost in the crease. Plus a quick look at the ShinyHunters hack that crashed Canvas for nearly 9,000 schools right in the middle of finals week. Tech help, real people, Battle Born style.
